native NZ bush creek
an introduced tropical species, it is now spread abundantly throughout the North Island (this was found here in the South!)
thankyou Alex, they certainly look like they could be part of this family. I must spend more time trying to identify my spottings but I enjoy the field work more! It will be Summer here soon and gets dry so few fungi...then I will do my research!
